The official Food, Inc. Discussion Guide is now available for download providing teachers with the resources to guide classroom conversations about the eye-opening documentary for student audiences, high school age and older. The snazzy and impressively thorough 103-page guide was developed by the Center for Ecoliteracy, and offers questions and activities based around the film's themes, including health, sustainability, animal welfare, and workers rights.
The lesson plans are designed to help students make more thoughtful decisions about food and participate in a meaningful dialogue about food and food systems. I really wish I had been able to see and discuss Food, Inc. when I was in high school, as it would have challenged me to think more deeply about the significance of where our food comes from, and how the choices we make three times a day, can have a tremendous impact on the planet and our health.
Food Inc., the documentary directed by Robert Kenner, is available today for the first time on DVD and Blu-Ray, and is still playing in some theaters, so be sure to check out what the New York Times called "one of the scariest movies of the year." And if you're an educator or a student who wants to bring the film to your classroom, go download the Discussion Guide. Topics
